Power and Power-Up Modes
The computer’s power resources include the AC adaptor and internal batteries. This
chapter gives details on making the most effective use of these resources including
charging and changing batteries, tips for saving battery power, and power up
modes.
Power conditions
The computer’s operating capability and battery charge status are affected by the
power conditions: whether an AC adaptor is connected, whether a battery is
installed and what the charge level is for the battery.
